Plus it's for free, which is a big thing in some countries like China (where I heard that wc3 is only so popular because it's free as many ppl use illegal versions)

Or maybe he hasn't won a tournament since it was widely realized that his style is to take big risks.
Except he plays freaking safe. Cannon rush on Xel'Naga is NOT risky. His PvZ is super safe, his PvT is super safe (3gate expand or 2gate robo expand these days)
I remember IdrA commentating Adel saying he doesn't scout and just makes nexuses and hopes the opponent doesn't attack. I thought that was kind of harsh but seriously expanding off 2-gate in PvP on a map with a wide ramp? I mean even though he got the forge he still only built one cannon. That's greedy to the extreme.

That's because LoL's stream is viewable via the launcher, directly integrated to the game. Imagine if it was the same for sc2...

If you understand the game so well, why do you need the caster to tell you what's going on?
I want casters to provide enthusiasm and entertainment. TB does that.

So... why is Morrow playing T? Zerg starts to get good and he decides to doesn't like them anymore or something? He doesn't want to play zvz.

Just stop talking... state your facts correctly mc won not him he did pretty good though

So much for idrA having a walkover group

Idra loses the first game against Naama

Merz doesn't play superbly in terms of tactics but he is known for having the highest APM outside Korea, possibly even including Korea.

Mc just out-rolled adel so bad -_- high ground advantage this is the thing that sc2 misses the most. i agree with ya. I mean, it would make pvp soooo much more interesting since you'd actually be able to defend 4gates without 4gates....
Never thought of it that way, but that is a really good point.

Expanding in PvP is a well known joke! LoL depends on the map, you can hold with sentry cannon on some maps. Maybe the first wave. But if you're investing so much into cannons/sentries, your tech will be so slow. The opponent can get blink in time and just do a mass blink in your base or can get a warp prism and elevator you. I watched Artosis try 1 gate forge for about half an hour and every time there'd be a elevator/blink into his base just as he began getting hisgates
yeah, like blinking up on crevasse is very strong. but ive seen some people follow it up with 2 stargate phnx and it worked very well, if they dont hit the blink timing

Wow Idra gg'd, thought he would just leave, must be pissed nevertheless.
|
Naama's SCV train is COMING for you!! HELL yeah!!

I'd be on a tilt if I was IdrA... fucking 1base allins :D

Without a co-caster all he does is misinform. At least learn the game a little?

Naama 1-0 Idra.
I think idra is jetlagged or something, hes totally not playing the standard.
